The Filipino Male
« on: May 29, 2009, 09:32:23 PM »

Talamban, Cebu City


It seems that we from time to time need to have an outsider to tell us some unpleasant but undeniable truths about ourselves.

In a way, this phenomenon is understandable, since on the average we tend to see only what we like to see among ourselves. Our objectivity-subjectivity correspondence can be way below perfect. It can even get an F-mark.

Recently, I've been having some email exchanges with an American who has been reacting to my columns. I will not mention his name, but his opinions have given me fodder for thought and reflections. I think his views are worthwhile sharing.

Since he has been courting a Filipina mainly through the Internet, though he also has been here for a while precisely to see the girl, he has been quite fascinated by what he discovered in the Filipino woman.

When I told him that many Filipinas are simple in character and pious,this was how he reacted:

"That 'simple' statement, while accurate, does not begin to do justice to who she is as a person. She is an extraordinary example of something that I have discovered about the Filipina personality-the unique combination of hyper-femininity and strength of character and dignity of personality that I can only describe as remarkable.

"American women tend to be either (1) very feminine and weak, or (2) very aggressive and anti-feminine. Filipino men are blessed, if you don't mind my saying, with extraordinarily special women."

When I read that part of his comments, I had to do a double take. I know the observation is at best cursory, but I feel there's a lot of truth contained in those words. They touched an open issue about what I feel is an imbalance between the Filipino male and female especially in relation to faith and religion.

I don't think there could be much question about women being more active than men in this most intimate aspect of our life. Any random look at churches, prayer meetings, religious activities would reveal that women clearly outnumber men. They lead by a mile.

I was amused one time when I joined a Good Friday liturgy. My friend, the parish priest, only asked the men to kiss the cross during the celebration. When I asked him why, he simply said that that was about the only time men can be seen to be dominating the ceremony. Usually they take the role of extras.

This, to me, is kind of unfair, since in the last analysis it is the men who become priests, bishops and popes, and who preside in the ceremonies, not the women.

Of course, that observation may be true not only here but also all over the world. It would seem that religiosity is determined by the X-chromosome. This, to me, is of course nonsense, since religiosity is more a spiritual phenomenon than a biological one.

This does not mean that the sex factor has no effect on our religiosity. It has, but it's more on the way we express or manifest it. It has nothing to do with causing or determining it.

Perhaps what's more correct to say is that our religiosity appears to be stranded in the biological or social level. It has not yet entered into its proper medium, which is our spirit, with the intelligence and will as the main faculties.

It appears stuck in the emotional level, and thus men could truly be far behind the women in this field. But it should not be so. A challenging task awaits the clergy and others to correct this anomaly.

I remember that as a kid, I saw only women busy praying at home or in church, while the men just took care of fighting cocks. I had never seen a man making a novena, or a public penitential act. During the homily at Mass, the men automatically went out of the church to smoke or something.

I'm afraid this phenomenon is reflective of the primitivism of our sense of religion. It's still stuck in the sensitive level, in the sensational and the instant-result mentality. It refuses to grow and develop into a truly spiritual concern that goes beyond the purely human and natural.

It's about time we rectify this irregularity. The Filipino male is in urgent need of some drastic transformation!

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

This is an interesting observation, specifically a personal observation--that of Fr. Cimagala's.


My response to Fr. Cimagala:


Dear Fr, I respect your interpretation of the current situation and the trend in the region of the Philippines that you have been ordained to minister to, and your observations of the act of faith of peoples in your current diocese should be noted with respect and understanding--given your years of ministry in the Church.

However, let me kindly infer my own point of view--not anyway cholinergic to that of yours, but to infer a different perspective of the greater male vantage point.

We, as a people--matters not if we are Filipino, American, English, Dutch, Spanish, Indian--etc. As Christian, specificially Catholic-Bible Christians, cannot escape the fact that we are flesh of the flesh and our innate biological iniquities will nevertheless be supine throughout our lifetimes. The spirit is just that--it is the Spirit, it is the transcedentalist visage of our persona--it is the manifestation of the soul, of the body. But our bodily habits, or as what you would refer as our 'biological' traits--are just that. Its just the physical--the shell--it is the programmed intuition that has been elasticized into the persona due to the societal notion of male and female responsibilties, traits and expectations.

Does the physical action define the soul or the spirit of the individual? Not really, it is impossible to ever search deep into anothers' soul and understand that certain individual. Only the Lord God In Heaven, who created all things through Him and For Him. We observe this in the biblical passage of Romans 11: 33-36, "  Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How inscrutable are his judgments and how unsearchable his ways! "For who has known the mind of the Lord or who has been his counselor?" "Or who has given him anything that he may be repaid?" For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen."

Let me tell share you something, Fr. Cimagala, about myself--I am a 23 year old Filipino-American; a medical student, who feels very connected to the Filipino community here in Southern New Jersey. I tell you, Fr, that every Christmas Season or during the month of May i attend--with my family and friends--the Fiestas for Bohol--specifically for my town of Valencia.

And sometimes my family hosts the celebration of the Blessed Santo Nino, and we have the honor of inviting fellow Valencianons, Boholanos, and fellow Bisayans and Filipino at that. Most of the active participants that ive noticed--are a union of Filipinas and Filipinos. Some of us--the Filipino-American youth are brought up and introduced to this beautiful religious culture of ours. Its a self realization of our roots, of our standard of understanding, and of the time-honored faith that has been given to us as a people, by Grace of God.

My point, Fr Cimagala, is that tho the Filipino male seems to show and visualize his ubiquitous machisimo characte and nature, deep inside that facade of cultural machisimo--is a heart of understanding, a warm and respectful heart that adores and fears his Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ. And adores the Blessed Word of God--that we partake of in our weekly visits at Mass. To partake of His precious body, and his precious blood.

What the eyes and body observes--does not justify nor does it unerstand what it cannot see. For our spirits and our understandings--are hidden from the body and the physical.

To which our Father in Heaven, ALONE, knows and sees. We should live not to impress and to suite the prejudices of others--or to prove a point. But to live our lives and our pilgrimage of Life, which is justified in Christ. We should worry less about what others think and feel about us, rather, we should focus more on doing things that the LORD approves and rejoices in.

Thanks for your understanding, Fr. Cimagala.



Fraternally Yours,
A Brother In Christ,
Bran Lorenzo Lucino Jr.

Hard working
sacrificial
thick skinned
vigorous
faithful
family oriented
protective
protector
fatherly
brother
barkada
amigo
compadre
pare-pare
intellectual
brilliant
scholar
optimistic

Think about the hundreds of thousands of Filipino Males that are abroad--in Saudi and the Middle East. Many of whom only come back to the Phils once and a while, but constantly send money to send the children to college, food for the family etc.

That is sacrifice. One thing I know about Filipino Males, especially that of my father and my father's generation--is their unassailable love and duty to Family.

Either they be Engineers, Physicians, Shipmate, Marketing, etc.

I have alot of respect for the Filipino Man. To which, I am proud to be part of. :)

It's so true tagsa ray Filipino male nga religious gawas adtong ingsulod sa seminaryo. Some of them claim to be very religious pero okey ra makapaanak ug mangabit sakto ba na? I have four brothers para nako ilang action sa ulitawo pa sila dili admirable.They were so strict to me nga di daw mag uyab uyab karon diay sila ray daghan uyab.
Here in U.S daghan male mosimba which sa pilipinas maihap ra bitaw. Hilig us stambay ning Pinoy sa pilipinas ug hilig pud ug hubog hubog.

Hello Ate Raquel,

I agree with you in that the Filipino man is very protective. Ako galing, protective ko kaayo para sa ahong igsoong baji. Bisan 22 years old na sija and ako 23 na, dili jud sija allowed nako to date in college.

Ingoon to ahong papa before the starting of Lorraine's 1st year in college, he said to me, which i will never forget, "Bran, you are my eyes and my ears."

Pero I am so blessed to have such a wonderful and vocal sister. Kai conservative man kaayo si Lorraine--thanks be to God. My main worry in college was that there are alot of risk-taking American college students (males) that are only in for the short term aspect.

I have no problem with my sister or my younger brothers dating and going out with puti, chinese, latin, etc. I just have a problem when it comes to dating and pang-uyabuyab and having that affect with studies.

I had high school classmates that were very open into relationships and dating dating in high school years--and quite a few of them now are already parents. At an early age pa.

As a high school student i thought my parent's rules of the house of 'NO DATING' was too much. But looking at it now in hindsight, I baske in my parent's understanding and perception.


Pero yes, I am a strict kuya. Uber protective pa.
When I have kids, i will probably be protective--especially concerning my baby girls--if i so ever had daughters. And my sons, I would train as I was raised. Disciplined if necessary but showered with affection and love.

ah dili man uy, below average ra man ko, Ate. Daghang role models man didto sa Pilipinas kai sila man mai kabao mo sacrifice. Stories like that of my great lolo Bernardo, who worked as a farmer and fisherman in the island of Pintuyan. Pordoy sila itawn ilang pag kanonon ra kai maiz, camote ug isdra ra. Sometimes ug naay kwarta, maka palit pood sila ug luto and ug naay kwarta sa banko, maka palit pood sila ug karne, pero dili frequent.

But in his own poverty and humble lifestyle, he was still able to provide for his children, despite the condition of the day. Raised over 12 kids even despite the economic situation. To God be the Glory!

Ahong great lolo sa mother's side si Lolo Ricardo, and my great lola Donisia, had over 12 kids pood. They were from Barangay Anas didto sa Valencia. Taga bukid sila intawn, luuy pood ilang kaugalingoon kai walay kwarta. Pero hard working man pood sila, kai mo trabajo man pood si lolo ricardo ug ahong lolo casiano sa basak. First born man ahong lolo ciano and bata pa sija ning trabajo na. Mo trabajo kai mo help pood mo palut ug kanonon sa table sa pamilya so dili pood ma gutum ijang gamay ka igsoon. Gamay pa sija intawn, ning adto na sija sa Cagayan De Oro didto sa Mindanao. Ning trabajo sija didto as a helper, sa basak, driver pood, fisherman. Tanan.

Ahong lolo ciano ning balik sa valencia, bisan walay edukasyon, smart gud sija kaayo, bisan walay 'fancy fancy wordings' iyang gift and his strength was a clear voice, speaking in truth and makaGINOO. Bisan walay edukasyon ahong lolo, he was still able to send all 5 of his kids to college. Tanan na human sa Engineering ug nursing school. Mao na gi ingoon sa ahong lolo nako, "If you saw me as a child when bata pa ko, 'doy, maka ingoon sigoro ka nako wala ko yamo futuro or maka kingoon ang tawo wa sigoro ko yamo ug opportunidad"

Ning hilak ko when he said that kai lolo gud sija nako. pero ning katawa pood sija nako. Ingoon sija nako< "Mao na ayaw lagi underestimate ang tawo na porody kaayo kai luuy  pood ijang kaugalingoon kai dili man buta ug bongol ang GINOO SA LANGGIT. Ako wala ko yamo edukaskyon kai walay kwarta man ahong mama ug papa. luuy pood mi kai taga bukidnon. Pero ang trabajo nako naka send sa imung mama sa collegio para nursing, ug imung mga uncles para s engineering. Bisan wala ko yamo edukasyon, ang success sa ahong anak ug ahong mga apo---AKONG SUCCESS POOD."

:) 

Hilak ko intawn when my lolo told me that.

GOD BLESS THE POOR!

Ako usa ka gwapo

Sa akong pagkatawo,mapasalamaton ako kaayo
Sa akong ginikanan ako buotan nga tawo
Inila sa pamilya tungod sa akong motto
Kanunay mag binuotan ug feeling gwapo

MIlabay ang panahon MIdako ug nahimong ulitawo
Nanguyab ug daghan puro basted kuno
Wala sila kabalo nga ako kursonada kaayo
Sa akong gugma kanimo akong i tudo

Bisan mag dumili mga chix sigeng panglingi
Kanako nag ibid-ibid gugma nako gi hingi
Kalooy sa dalaga kay wala nako gi pili
Swerte sa babaye para niya akong dili magdumili

Gugma ko kanimo walay sama
Kinabuhi ko gi alay unsay gi paabot sugta na
Kasing-kasing mo pitik sa tinuod nga gugma
Kay ang paghigugma gikan Kaniya usa ka Gasa

Ampingi sa dayon kasing-kasing ko diha kanimo
Ayaw pasagdi paghigugma ko kanimo dako ug bili
Usa ka gasa nga dili mahatag bisan kinsa timan-i
Sa pag higugma walay sama ang imong gibati ayaw kalimti

Kadako sa gugma akong gibati kanimo inday
Wala ko mosayod kinabuhi ko kung ikaw mahiwalay
Hinaut mag pabilin ikaw sa kanunay
Kay ikaw ra akong gugma pakamatyan ko bisan ngutana pa kang nanay

Ngano ba nga ikaw paman,kadaghan sa babaye niining kalibutan
Apan diha kanimo akong nahikaplagan
Gugma mong napa ka matahom ug ako nabulahan
Gi pitik sa kanunay sa matag adlaw ako maganahan.

Putlon nani nako balak kung daghang makat-unan
Mga pulong nga gikan sa akong galamhan
I-halad kanimo hangtod sa kahangturan,gugma ko kanimo
sa kanunay magpabilin sa akong dughan.

It's so true tagsa ray Filipino male nga religious gawas adtong ingsulod sa seminaryo. Some of them claim to be very religious pero okey ra makapaanak ug mangabit sakto ba na? I have four brothers para nako ilang action sa ulitawo pa sila dili admirable.They were so strict to me nga di daw mag uyab uyab karon diay sila ray daghan uyab.
Here in U.S daghan male mosimba which sa pilipinas maihap ra bitaw. Hilig us stambay ning Pinoy sa pilipinas ug hilig pud ug hubog hubog.

Ingon ana pod akong mga igsoon laki. Ingon lagi sila nga pakugon kono mi og ang laki basta masakpan (kadtong school pa ko). Pero sa nangaminyo na sila. Nakasabot na sila kung ang ilang mga manghud pwede di ay ulitawhan :)

Protective kaayo kining Pinoy brother.

Ug mo adto mi sa mall with my barkadas, and my sister and her friends her with her ma relaxed ko. Pero as soon as naay lalaki (nga very obvious what his intent is), mo ingoon ahong mga amigo that "Your eyes widen like a lion". lol.

In college, there were college guys that would flee once they saw that i was coming to visit or to talk to my sister.

hehe, dili allowed ma pabastosbastos ang lalaking tawo sa ahong igsoon baji.
Dili puydi.

If he comes from a good family, good background, speaks properly, carries himself properly, well around, and carries himself, mo approve ko. Pero if he is spineless and is 'shady' (and believe me I can easily see through people), dili puydi.

My siblings already know that I am a very protective Kuya.

Di ko gusto mo pick up ahong mga igsoon ug bad and negative vibes from people that have no bearing, plus kanang tawo that easily curse and pabastosbastoson, dili ko gusto sila mo hang out with that group of people.

Habit is based on observational learning.
If you expose yourself and surround yourself to constant negativity and vice, you yourself will pick up on it and be influenced. Clinical observation na, as well as personal observation.

-----

My view is like that of my father's.
:Studies first, unya ra ning mga date date.

Ive had to talk to my younger brother about this as well. As he's coming of age; 16 na siya. And guapo raba kaayo. I had to tell him, "Preserve, preserve. The girls will offer, but you must preserve. It only takes one thing to ruin an entire process. Preserve."

Ingon dayon, "Yes, Kuya"

Di ko gusto ma pabastosbastos lagi. Wa ko yamo patience for that.

Sakto ka kaajo Ms. Raquel.  Maglagot bitaw ko maghuna-huna sa pagkakaron.  During my in - love - younger days, perting paningkamot sa ahong uyab nga tugotan ko sa akong parents nga mamista  ming duha sa ilang kaparyentehan nga adto manghigda. Mosugot man gani ang mga olds, pero anha ra ko mosango sa akong mga older brothers.  Mahadlok sila...kay kahibalo man sila ug unsay ilang paagi sa ilang mga girls pod.

Lagi mada mag hangyo atong inahan ug amahan bitaw pero kining laking maguwang bisan pa ug unsaon nimo ug mug ot mug-ot di madala hug lagi matulog nalang ta magmusgot ang nawong kay wa kagawas or katan aw ug kalingawan sa sobrang ka stickto aning laking maguwang. Happy man ta nga naa sila mo protect nato pero sobraan ra pud nga I always think they actually had no respect for us women to control ourself. Perhaps they should put the blame for bad behavior where it belongs, on those filipino males who can't control their actions.

For any young lady, one should always be careful and cautious when dating men. You have to make sure that they are trustworthy, true, and really caring. There are good apples and not so good apples.

So pick well.

Religious ko

Bisan ako usa ka gwapo relihiyoso pud ko
Sa simbahan moadto mangayo sa pasaylo
Lamdagan sa huna-huna sa balaang espirito
Kay ako usa ka tawo Love nako akong Ginoo

Sa magabie dayon tulog rosaryo akong himuon
Pasalamat sa grasya sa adlaw akong nabaton
Pangaliya sa Ginoo sa mga blessings akong lantawon
Kay ug wala ang Ginoo ako wala pud tawon.

Kinabuhi ko sa Ginoo akong gi halad
Sa matag adlaw nga kayod sa tinarong nga pag-usad
Gi antos ang kasakit kay walay problema nga dili masulbad
Basta mangayo sa pangaliya ug ang Ginoo dili mobalibad

Ako usa ka ulitawo buotan ug relihiyoso
Buotan nga anak matinahoron nga pagkatawo
Gi matuto sa ginikanan gi-ampingan sa pag-ayo
Nagdako nga mahigugmaon ug mahadlokon sa Ginoo

Ako usa ka gwapo ug relihiyoso
Mga chix kanunay mag sige sa pagpaluyo
Dili panumbalingon kay ako determinado
Pag kab-ot sa kaugmaon para sa pamilya ko.
